Great bike!  Had one in high school that I picked up used and have a lot a great memories.  I have it's big brother the YZ250s from the same year.  First year frame with lowboy tank for better handling.  I've been racing mine for the last 3 summers in our local vintage series.  UFO makes plastic for it, 88 cartridge forks are an improvement up front and if you can find an Ohlin's shock it really makes the bike work well.  Motor wise there is some port work and it benefits from a decent pipe, both will liven it up and the motor was in the hunt comparing it to the other bikes of the day. 

Nice 76 RD200 up on the shelf.  I did a mechanical referb of one for my Dad and gave it to him for his 75th birthday.

Fast bike , Is definitely my favourite 86-88 125 Yz. I really wanted to build one again but I couldn’t find* the parts in the 90’s let alone 30+ years later . Looks awesome , Good luck
